like matchboxes. unbelievable scene. hearts go out to everybody today. jon:. bill: i'm taken by bob turner. he and so many are going through a tough, tough time. hang in there people. martha: see you back here tomorrow, folks. jenna: fires and blizzard in the aftermath of the killer superstorm named sandy. we're glad you're with us everybody as our coverage continues on "happening now." i'm jenna lee. jon: i'm jon scott. the damage is stagger two days after sandy slammed the entire east coast. neighborhoods are without power and flooded out. dramatic rooftops rescues in hard-hit areas like staten island, new york. new york city subways remain shut down for a second day because of massive flooding. new york not the only place struggling to recover from a monster storm that is blamed for 55 deaths. ohio feeling the sheer force of sandy did. this powerful storm knocked down trees, snapping power lines, leaving hundreds of thousands of folks in the dark there. that is drop this the bucket compared to more than eight million who have no power. at the height of the storm. some as far away

. see you tomorrow or monday. jon: fox news alert on the number one issue to americans this election season. we are talking about the jobs. the unemployment rate for september. 7.8% is the number. that number below eight percent for the first time in almost four years. 114,000 jobs created last month but not nearly enough to keep pace with population growth. as 23 million americans remain unemployed or under employed. coming up we'll go behind the numbers to see what they really tell us about the overall health of our economy. governor romney quickly issuing a statement saying, this is not what a real recovery looks like. meanwhile, we are awaiting, we're awaiting remarks from president obama. both presidential nominees are campaigning in the battleground state of virginia today. we are closely monitoring these events. we'll bring you the very latest developments. back to all of that in just a moment. but first, brand new stories and breaking news. jenna: new developments on a deadly meningitis outbreak putting nearly half of all states on alert with fresh concerns that more people m

meant play by jon jay with the backhand right on the ground. blanco had gone around second base. now allen craig and everybody on the card infield are saying that he is out of the baseline, and now first base umpire, miller, will get help from gibson. >> meanwhile craig is saying he tagged him, and looked like he got him on the back. >> tim: he did. >> joe: we will get a conference now with the umpires. and he got him on the back. >> tim: he clearly did. >> joe: it should be a double play. miller had a great view of it, but didn't see it. and if somebody else saw something different, then they will call him out. if not, it will be one on, one out. and nobody saw it. >> tim: of course, that is not reviewable. mike matheny arguing, but bill miller -- i beg your pardon, gibson, second base umpire, would have had the best shot at it but he was out in center field making sure that jon jay made the catch, which he did. >> joe: and matheny is still letting bill miller hear it. take a look at the positioning of the umpires. greg gibson, the second base umpire. he stays put. he's right there.

to jon jay. holliday has not done much in this lcs. hit by a pitch his last time up. four out of twenty three, no home runs, two rbi. hitting under .200. this last night's game, he had a bad back. jason motte, the closer for the cardinals, gets ready in the bullpen. allen craig and yadier molina will follow. still 0-2. here is the 0-2 pitch from santiago casilla. it misses outside. the cardinals have not lost three straight since september 10th through the 12th and they are in danger of doing that and blowing a three-games-to-one series advantage, and the giants have shut down the cardinal offense almost entirely. a high hopper. tough play. arias got him? nope, safe! belt came off the bag and tried to influence the call by the first base umpire, who gave a quick safe call. that was gione. it looked like holliday beat it. arias did all he could, and he was safe. >> tim: good call. >> joe: it's a base hit. an infield base hit for holliday. and arias couldn't have done much more with it. he looks in for the sign. craig now three out of his last twenty-seven. he's 0 for 3 in this game. he l

more vulnerable without mitchell boggs. so we'll see. a key at-bat by jon jay here with two runners on. >> joe: the runners will be at second and third with two out. lopez will get that little meeting from the crew chief yossgary darling before he got o the mound. maybe they let him take the time he needs. again, lopez brought in. then the tarp came on. lopez did not have to face a batter, if the giants didn't want to do that. but they're going to stay with their sidearming left-hander, making his first appearance of this nlcs. it will be that confrontation with jon jay, with runners on at second and third. descalso and kozma. so basically three-and-a-half hours later. we're going to resume play with jay at the plate. one for two on the night. lopez was such a big part of it in 2010. now they're going to repaint the batter's box. >> tim: i know we forgot something. what was it? >> joe: and this grounds crew. they have been busy tonight. they've done a great job. you can see erin andrews actually -- erin andrews asked before the rain really hit how this field is drainage wise. and the a

sat down with jon stewart on "the daily show." there the president faced questions about the administration's handing of the attack in libya and the communication problems that followed. >> we weren't confused about the fact that four americans had been killed. >> sure. >> i wasn't confused about the fact that we needed to ramp up diplomat security around the world right after it happened. i wasn't confused about the fact that we had to investigate exactly what happened. so it gets fixed. i wasn't confused about the fact that we're going to hundred down whoever did it and bring them to justice. >> i would say even you would admit it wasn't the optimal response at least to the american people as far as us all being on the same page. >> here's what i'll say. >> yes. >> if four americans get killed it's not optimal. >> right. >> we're going to fix it. >> right. >> all of it? >> all of it. >> the man suspected of helping to lead the deadly attack on the u.s. consulate in libya says he has no plans to go into hiding. >>> a "new york times" report says abu ahmed spent two hours

show's" jon stewart in reference to the killings in libya that when four americans get killed, it is not optimal. senators john mccain and kelly ayotte are here to talk about that. first it's happening again, governor mitt romney starting to see a surge from the debate. >> by the way, the new gallup poll is outs, and it's rom plus seven. this is not -- it is romney plus seven. this does not yet include that seven-day rolling average. romney is 52-45 over obama in the rolling gallup daily tracking. so i think obama, you need to keep talking about these binders. you need to keep talking about big bird. you need to keep talking about these insulting infantile irrelevant things. >> what president obama has been trying do from the spring on is not to offer the country a vision forward, it is not to say here's how we get out of debt, here's how we grow the economy, but just don't like mitt romney. he's basically trying do disqualify his opponent with his sea of negativity. he's trying to distract this country. he's trying to divide this country, pitsing people against each other. he

, the cardinals could be a little more vulnerable without mitchell boggs. so we'll see. a key at-bat by jon jay here with two runners on. >> joe: the runners will be at second and third with two out. lopez will get that little meeting from the crew chief yossgary darling before he got o the mound. maybe they let him take the time he needs. again, lopez brought in. then the tarp came on. lopez did not have to face a batter, if the giants didn't want to do that. but they're going to stay with their sidearming left-hander, making his first appearance of this nlcs. it will be that confrontation with jon jay, with runners on at second and third. descalso and kozma. so basically three-and-a-half hours later. we're going to resume play with jay at the plate. one for two on the night. lopez was such a big part of it in 2010. now they're going to repaint the batter's box. >> tim: i know we forgot something. what was it? >> joe: and this grounds crew. they have been busy tonight. they've done a great job. you can see erin andrews actually -- erin andrews asked before the rain really hit how this field is

wasn't all laughs. >> no, it isn't. jon stewart, you know, sure he's on comedy central, but a lot of people go there for the news, specifically younger people. jon stewart isn't always making jokes. he does ask very pointed questions. let's listen to this exchange. >> i would say even you would admit it was not the optimal response, at least to the american people, as far as us all being on the same page. >> here's what i'll say. >> yeah. >> if four americans get killed, it's not optimal. >> right. >> we're going to fix it. >> all of it. >> all of it. and what happens during the course of a presidency is that the government is a big operation. at any given time, something screws up and you make sure that you find out what's broken and fix it. >> you have the president talking about the benghazi situation. at this point, who would have thought we'd be talking about foreign policy in regards to the presidential campaign, but it has become part of the narrative. >> of course, foreign policy will be the subject of the debate monday night in florida. there was big news in florida overn

. one away. and the batter will be jon jay. after jay you have the switch-hitting beltran and then right-handed batters coming up. the rain lightens up a bit. romo continues to get loose. lopez struck out tony cruz to end the eighth. allowed a walk and get the force-out at second here in the ninth. strike 1. >> tim: a reporter asked sergio romo what it would be like to see his first game seven in person. he said i don't know, i've never seen one, much less pitched in one. >> joe: it is pouring! >> tim: yeah. >> joe: here's the 0-1. ripped foul. strike 2. gary darling is the crew chief. it's up to him. it's in his hands if he wants to pull the tarp on and delay the rest of this night. the crowd doesn't want it. >> tim: no. >> joe: here's the 0-2. ball 1. >> tim: the crowd is probably thinking we've seen the 49ers perform in this type weather all the time. big deal. >> joe: jon jay with the rain pounding down. set up at is 1-2. one on, one out. two out. marco scutaro, who has had an mvp series, enjoying the rain. for good measure, the guy that ended the season last year as a san francisco

jenna: jon scott said he might come and do it with me. jon: some time. 12 miles in the mud. should be fun. jenna: photos on monday. have a good weekend, everybody. jon: "america live" starts right now. megyn: fox news alert from the campaign trail with a little more than 72 hours until the final presidential debate, and a new pew poll raises the stakes for the big face off on monday. welcome to "america live," i'm megyn kelly. 72 hours we will be broadcasting live from the site of the final presidential debate in boca raton, florida. the pew research center releases a new poll showing governor mitt romney slowing a huge gap over the past few weeks picking up 11 points on the issue of foreign policy. who would make good decision -gs. good decisions. and foreign policy is the focus of that final debate. chris style wart is our fox news digital analyst and host of fox news. the lead president obama had has plummeted 11 points. he had a 15-point advantage in this department in september, and now take a look at it. it is a four-point advantage for him. is that all because of libya? >> w

. also pulitzer prize winning historian jon meacham. we have three weeks to go until election day. and tonight, obviously, is the big debate. it's going to be a town hall-style debate. and some new polls are out. let's take a look at, again, we've got a shift possibly in the electoral map. this morning, a new "usa today" gallup poll shows growing momentum for mitt romney in the key battleground states, including ohio, florida, and virginia. the poll has romney pulling ahead by four points among likely voters. 50% to 46%. this is obviously a big shift. it's only one poll. but perhaps the bigger take away from this poll and some others is how the candidates are ranking among likely woman voters in those battleground states. we've heard an awful lot about the gender gap since the primary season, but among likely female voters in swing states, mitt romney's pulling almost even with the president. 48% to 49%, among male voters in the swing states, romney has an eight-point lead over the president. mark, let's start with you. you're reporting right now that senior democratic officials a

john heilemann. and in nashville, i love nashville, pulitzer prize-winning historian jon meacham. meacham. should we go right there? >> in one second. i've -- we've got to set this up first for mike barnicle. we've all been saying the same thing. phone calls coming in last night from my democratic friends, independent friends, republicans, everybody's been asking the same thing, where did this come from? we've never seen this mitt romney before, but you say you have. >> yes, this is how mitt romney became governor of massachusetts in 2002 during a series of debates. he was exactly this way as he was last night. he came in prepared. he had a plan. he executed it. he was armed with specific information. he went right at the opponent. then it was shannon o'brien running for governor against him. and he did that again last night. effectively. >> and willie, he seemed, for the first time, comfortable in his skin. you know, we've been pounding mitt romney despite what chee-to eaters thought on the internet because he's had a horrible, horrible month. he was uncomfortable in his skin. l

greenfield's getting comfortable. jon meacham, a little too comfortable. >> pulitzer prize. >> and eugene robinson. >> they want to get out of their chairs. >> a couple felonies in that room, too. >> mt. rushmore. felonious behavior. ♪ na, na... ♪ na, na-na, na [ men ] ♪ hey, hey, hey ♪ goodbye [ flushing ] ♪ [ both ] ♪ na, na... [ woman ] ♪ na, na-na, na [ men ] ♪ hey, hey, hey ♪ good-bye [ male announcer ] with kohler's powerful, high-efficiency toilets. flush. and done.

[ male announcer ] and that's how you test your car for fun. easy. [ mom ] we already have a tv. would you like to know

starts to fall here in the eighth. >> tim: hold the rain. >> joe: it will be the top of the order. jon jay, matt carpenter, matt holliday against lopez. finally got in to this series in game three. one third of an inning, he was the one that was brought in right before the delay. and then came back and got the man at the plate. jon jay. ground ball to first. starts jay with a strike. he's got great action. javier lopez. the 0-1. strike two. so hard on left-handed hitters. >> tim: yeah, when he drops down, as we said last night, the front side comes out of there and you really have no chance. lopez born in puerto rico. moved to washington, d.c., when he was three years old. his dad was an f.b.i. agent. that is what he wanted to be. however, i think he chose the right profession. >> joe: he found a niche. sidearming left-handed specialist. always looking for this type of guy. >> tim: that's right. that is really what the cardinals don't have. >> joe: they have more conventional left-handers, rzepczynski. this guy is deadly on left-handed batters and he gets a strike-out to start his nigh

continued even until yesterday on the daily show with jon stewart the president continues to have trouble explaining what happened and explaining how he managed to talk about this in the way that he did. so, yeah, you'd have to say that libya is at the heart of that big drop. megyn: it's amazing what a difference that issue is starting to have in this election, because the same polling group did a poll on foreign policy about a week ago and asked about everything from china, to iran, to egypt, and let me just give you some of the numbers. it shows the two candidates about deadlocked on who would better handle iran. a slight edge for the president when it comes to who would handle egypt better. slowed a slight edge -- stronger edge to romney and who would handle china better and get tough on trade with china the issue of libya seems to be the thing that narrowed this gap from 11-point advantage to barack obama to 4-point advantage. while it was somewhat of a debacle the other night, one person said one and the other person challenged back and forth and the moderator tried to stop it and ev

for the giants. >> tim: i think blanco went for the safe play. watch jon jay put the glove up as though he were going to make the catch. blanco did not have a good read. that frees him right there and could only go to third. >> joe: so the bases are loaded with theriot, the right-handed hitter, coming up. rzepczysnki is in the bullpen. right at the top of the hour here in san francisco, a beautiful night, 62 degrees. that's us, joe, tim, kenny and erin at&t park. and this crowd has been loud all night. theriot's second at-bat since taking over for the injured scutaro. good breaking ball for strike 1. on deck, the switch-hitting sandoval with rzepczysnki in the bullpen. here's the 0-1. strike 2. guillermo mota will join romo if this inning gets out of hand. theriot trying to add to it. the 0-2 pitch. breaking ball fouled back. game three, a late afternoon game in st. louis on wednesday. giants trying to even the series. great work tonight from ryan vogelsong, their starter. a breaking ball. fouled away. >> tim: theriot fighting off some good pitches from shelby miller. >> joe: the cardinals are

. not a bad idea trying to drop one down but it's foul. kozma now. shane robinson on deck. and then jon jay against mijares, with jason motte. the cardinal closer getting loose. will have at least a two-run lead in the bottom of this ninth. kozma. strike two. kozma with an rbi single, a stolen base, a run scored in the four-run fourth for st. louis. each side got more in the fourth. after the cardinals got two in the second and the home run by freese. that is all the scoring. fouled back. kozma, not a big guy. he gets a pretty good riff. the count still 0-2. not only does he have a single. for an rbi. but he has lined out to left. >> joe: another 0-2. down for ball one. the giants in their half of this ninth will have the eight, nine and one spot. crawford, pinch-hitter and pagan. two pinch-hitters at the start. kozma strikes out. >> tim: wow! what a disappearing slider by mijares. watch this ball break. it disappears on kozma. missed that ball by eight inchs. that is nasty right there. >> joe: so one out, shane robinson will come off the bench to bat for boggs. one scoreless inning for mit

into that pitch. >> joe: here's jon jay, who has one of the five cardinal hits. strike 1. affeldt has retired all three hitters he's faced. jay with a single, a strikeout and a groundout. mitchell boggs gets loose. good breaking ball has jay flinching, it's 0-2. ball 1. we talked about the cardinals throwing the 3-1 series lead to the braves with great pitching back in 1996. when they lost games five, six and seven, they lost 14-0, 3-1, 15-0. so one run scored for the cardinals the final three games in '96. if they are shutout here tonight, it will be one run scored in the final three games to blow that three-games-to-one advantage here in 2012. jay lays off that pitch in the dirt. 2-2. that was tony la russa's game back in '96. jay holds up. 2-2. >> tim: tony la russa that year replacing joe torre. joe torre, 1996, everybody knows the manager of the new york yankees and they go on to win a world championship. >> joe: here's the 3-2. jay takes a two-out walk and that didn't miss by much. it will bring in the switch-hitting beltran with two out. >> tim: one thing about the cardinals, joe, in their

practical tore and gamble. jon moeller will talk to us first at 7:00 a.m. and we will talk about fixing the debt, rising would have the fiscal cliff with honeywell coe david cote and our guest host robert johnson at 7:15 a.m. this is huge. about 80 ceos have signed on to this and we'll talk a lot about it today. all that plus a rock star who can't drive 55 when it comes to business. sammy ha sgchlt ar gar talks ab listening to his gut and he has made more money in a business. he's a genius. right now, more of andrew's top stories. >> i'm looking forward to seeing that interview. we have new news on apple. a judge ruling that samsung infringing on four apple pat te ents. and best buy is shaking up its management ranks. saying head of its u.s. business will be leaving in february and its chief administrative officer at the end of the month. best buy warning its third quarter results will fall women well short of forecasts. shares coming under pressure in after hours trading. and former goldman sachs director gupta has been sentenced for two years for insider trading. gupta has been hit wi

and msnbc political analyst, john heilemann. we also have pulitzer prize-winning historian jon meacham. >> that's a nice smile. >> yeah. hi, willie. >> and willie geist is here as well. willie, you know, when presidential campaigns are coming down to the final stretch, we all know who they go to, right? >> right. >> how do you set the shot up, right? >> exactly. >> what's the angle? what's the image? and who do you go to? you go to tv's own willie geist, right? >> you do. >> let me ask you, willie, what were you thinking yesterday when you decided i'm going to put the president of the united states down in some corn. >> by a hay bale. >> with bales of hay all around to make brian williams look like he's one of the country bears in country bear jamboree. what's going on there? >> i guess the story can be told now, brian did call me. >> okay. >> yesterday about noon. >> right. >> said geist, what do we go with? and i said, you're going to want to get yourself some bales of hay because it's just two guys in blue suits hanging out on the farm. >> it's like nixon walking, you know, along th

and jake tapper, david muir and jon karl are standing by. jake? lead us off. >> reporter: well, the obama campaign says they feel vice president biden did the forceful job he needs to do. a top democrat i spoke with earlier was worried that the age difference would play poorly for the vice president, being 69, that he feared he would seem tired. obviously vice president biden came ready to play. i think it's fair to say that jason sudeikis who plays him on "saturday night live" has a lot of ammunition for saturday night. democrats will be energized by the vice president's performance. they will be excited and it tees up president obama well. i agree with nicolle that i think it's different to see how it will play with independents, the moderates. but democrats feel very good about the vice president's performance and feel this will be a good way or the alley-oop for president obama. >> david muir? >> i got to tell you, george, a lot different from last week in denver where i was hearing from key advisers toward the key of the debate that romney made a lot of points on the economy, it was

role on saturday? jon: i'm the villain. jenna: oh. jon: yes. jenna: very provocative, jon. we'll definitely show some clips of that, right? jon: we'll see. if i hit my notes. thanks for joining us. jenna: "america live" starts right now. megyn: fox news alert on what has become a must-see event in campaign 2012, tonight's vice presidential debates. welcome to "america live," everyone, i'm megyn kelly, reporting live from danville, kentucky, where less than eight hours from right now vice president joe biden and republican nominee paul ryan will face off for the first and only time in this contest. new video just in to the fox newsroom showing mr. biden arriving in kentucky for tonight's big debate, and the debate comes as the romney/ryan ticket today opens up its biggest lead of in this entire election. the republicans leading by a full point now i in the real clear politics average of all polls, that's the first time that's happened since mitt romney secured the nomination. you can see the course of the last year with the blue line for president obama and the red line for mit

was a guest on the jon stewart show . he got away with a comment. we start the notable quotables with the president's response about sacrificing our values to insure national security. >>> there are trade offs. there are times when bad folks somewhere on the other side of the world and you have to make a call and it is not optimal. >>> that was the first time he used the term not optimal. >>> fast forward the discussion changes. it focuses the administration's response to the benghazi attacks. >>> i would say even you admit it was not the optimal reponce to the american people as far as us being on the same page. >>> this is what i will say. if four americans get killed it is not optimal and we will fix it >>> there were people who different appreciate the commepts. like pat smith. her son shawn was killed in the benghazi attacks and she said and how can you say someone being killed is not very optimal. it is insentencative to say my son is not very optimal. he's always very dead. i have not been optimal since he died and the past few weeks have been pure hell. i can't imagine wh

president obama sat down with jon stewart on "the daily show" where he faced questions about the administration's handling of the attack in libya and the communication problem that followed. >> we weren't confused about the fact that four americans had been killed. >> sure. >> i wasn't confused about the fact that we needed to ramp up diplomatic security around the world right after it happened. i wasn't confused about the fact that we had to investigate exactly what happened so it getted fixed, and i want confused about the fact that we're going to hunt down whoever did it and bring them to justice. >> i would say you would even admit it was not the optimal response at least to the american people as far as us all being on the same page. >> well, here's what i'll say. >> yeah. >> if four americans get killed, it's not optimal. >> right. >> and we're going to fix it. >> all of it. >> all of it. >> ed rendell, there are certainly some who are reacting to the use of the word "optimal" in this case. what's your take? >> jon stewart said it first in that exchange. and i think wha

and jon bonn jovi he poked fun at his debate debacle in denver. >> everybody here is a professional and great friends and they perform flawlessly night after night. i can't always say the same. >> the sudden plunge in the president poll numbers, though, is no laughing matter for chicago. in addition to republican romney taking the lead in the new pew poll, the first gallup daily tracking poll since that debate shows romney fought his way back to tie nationally knotted up at 47%. bounce for romney since before the debate when he was trailing in the same poll by 5 points. groping for answers about why the president stumbled almost a full week later his top advisors are still pushing the narrative that romney lied his way to victory. >> look, george, governor romney had a masterful, theatrical performance this past week. the underpinning and foundation of the performance were fundamentally dishonest. >> big bird meets the big lies. now governor romney will be challenged for the remain 30 days to explain how it is he pays for $5 trillion in cut and tax cut for millionaire and billionair

curveball stays inside to fool schumaker. >> joe: it brings in jon jay, who is 0 for 3 tonight. hitting .200 in this nlcs. he waits. he takes the strike. jay has flied to left, grounded out twice. 0-2. the last time the cardinals were shout out in a postseason game, game four of last year's world series in arlington, texas, the game started by derek holland, who last the 8 1/3. upstairs, the count 1-2. it evened that world series at two games a piece. here's the 1-2 pitch. just outside. 2-2. >> tim: close. >> joe: the next from zito. chopped foul right at the plate. the cardinals started this night trying to wrap up their 19th national league pennant. the giants are looking for therapy 19th and if they do it they will become the third team in nlcs to come back from three games to one. that's a fair ball. he looks back at the umpire as jay is on with one out here in the eighth. >> tim: it may have landed foul, but it went over the bag fair. all it has to do, of course, is go over the bag. good call by first base umpire jerry layne. >> joe: you see belt look back at jerry layne. it's a one-out

to be a smaller version of the ipad, call it the ipad mini. we go to jon fortt in silicon valley for more on today's main event. >> reporter: right behind me is where the action will take place. we're expecting a mini ipad. apple hasn't said exactly what this is. what would be the big deal over a smaller ipad? this would be the biggest new product announcement in about almost the past three years. not in the sense that it's bigger revenue wise, probably than an iphone but in terms of a new design and a risk apple is taking, a smaller ipad would be part of that. steve jobs said he wasn't in favor of such a thing at seven inches. of course we expect this could be closer to eight inches than seven based on a lot of the buzz out there. we have to wait and see. you could take a look at the products that apple has put out over the past few years as you've seen the stock do this amazing run since the iphone, this would be another product on that line-up so a question, will this be like another mac mini which close less than the mainstream imac but helped to bolster apple's overall product line or the ipo

a caricature on the talk shows, you know, when you want to get a quick laugh, david letterman or jon stewart, they invoke joe biden. on the other hand, in fairness to him as well as to paul ryan, these are two irish catholic political warriors who come from different generations. both athletic. they both have a passion about what they're doing. and my own guess is at the end of the evening, one of the tests of a vice presidential debate is, can they handle the presidency? do we want them to be a heartbeat away? and i think in both cases, people would have to say you can have them in that job, and if something happens to the president, they could step it up. that was my judgment. >> mark, a lot of times these vp debates show that one is not ready to pass that threshold test last night, there's no doubt. joe biden has been in washington since he was 29. >> yeah. this was a threshold test. biden's obviously passed it. he's been there. it was a real threshold test for ryan. to your point about biden, you're right, people that know him like him, generally. but a lot of people watching didn't know

doing dramatic stuff. >> so really he's saying that jon stewart has perverted him from his true calling. >> yes, he's perverted me in a lot of ways. >> by the way we'll talk about that in just a minute but first let's talk about "disgraced" and the setup. you're a successful pakistani lawyer on your way up but there's a scene in the dinner party where -- >> it all goes south. >> and suddenly you're going, what? >> i'm from india. >> well, it's a wonderful play and it really is the meat of it is a dinner party where you have these very smart erudite sophisticated upper east side new yorkers discussing race politics, identity politics, islam, sexual politics and then the whole dinner party just goes south and you realize that people -- it really comments on people's tribal identities and how we as much as we want to say, well, you know, it's united colors of beneneton and it evolves to their base level -- >> we saw that when you had a muslim group that wanted to put up a community center. >> exactly. >> in downtown new york. >> and you had these people who were building something based on

for being here. we wanted to start off by talking about libya. president obama was on tv last night with jon stewart talking about the killings in benghazi back in september. [video clip] >> as part of the investigation helping the communication between these divisions, what happened within. i would say even you would admit it was not the optimal response at least to the american people as far as us being on the same page. >> if four americans killed, it is not optimal. we are going to fix it. what happens during the course of the presidency is that the government is a big operation. at any given time, something screws up. you find out what is broken and you fix it. what ever else i have done throughout the course of my presidency, one thing i have been absolutely clear about is america's security come first and the american people need to know exactly how i make decisions when it comes to war, peace, national security and protecting the americans. they will continue to get that over the next four years of my presidency. host: the president has gotten some criticism for the use of the word "
